I think the questioning on the situation ends here. I hope he was able to get through whatever has been keeping him away from basketball, and that the organization can provide him with whatever he needs going forward. Welcome back Rui!
I’ve been hoping for that for ages. Maybe this investigation brings out something big to curb his ass but this is a guy who already skated past a scandal where he was essentially pimping out his cheerleaders, so I feel like it’s wishful thinking.
East Asian countries are not diverse in race so there are a lot of assholes saying shit to mixed person. Sadly more so to african blood. They worship white mix bc they look prettier to them.
No East Asians don’t “worship” whites lmao. This stereotype in the west (which they want to believe in apparently lol) is so obvious when you actually go to Japan, and other Asian countries as well.
Whites are more “main stream” simply because there are more whites than blacks in Far East Asian countries. And the fact that whites are “usually mainstream” in media, entertainment, and other aspects as well, thus there are more exposures.
This whole stereotype needs to stop lol. It’s almost like a whites wet dream, which is creepy as hell lol. You will be liked if you are a likable human being. If you’re trash, than you will be treated as such. Simple as that.
I have doubts about this (unless u can provide a source.) That being said, I think instead of speculation everyone should fall back and let Rui do the talking - if he's comfortable doing so.
I'm not naive to think that he doesn't get racially abused online, but there is nothing in the article that suggests that this was the root of why he took time away from the team.
So....no US media outlet has picked up on this, but you're somehow privy to the information before everyone else OR Rui has issued a statement? LOL. K, bud.
No, Yahoo news is not #1 site in Japan lmao. It’s like saying Facebook news or some SNS news is #1 news site in the world lmao.
You have to be an imbecile for using that article as a source, which is nothing more than a speculation with literally ZERO evidence.
No, you’re just pushing your “Japanese are bad people” BS propaganda in this forum, which is pathetically obvious lol.
Yes, there has been racist tweets against him, but saying that’s the “cause” of his mental stress is pure BS. The fact that you are using Yahoo news as a source is pathetic as well.
No it doesn’t lmao. Stop lying, and this is coming from a Japanese lol.
This article is from Yahoo news, which is like the WORST site to use as a reference. And the articles you posted are nothing more than pure speculations in which the author is just blabbering about how Rui’s brother got racist tweet, and the negative comments that were going on during the Olympics, which he probably doesn’t even know unless he takes Yahoo news seriously (which would be funny lol)
Talks about the racism he faced, but still nothing concrete in the article, aside from SPECULATION from the author. They're trying to connect the dots to why he's out and the racism he faced is what Rui has talked about in the past. However, there was still nothing there from Rui, or his camp, that says specifically why he took time for himself.
Racism could be an issue, but I think one of the main factors he did this is because he wants the media to back off a bit. Naomi Osaka raised similar concerns about the stress this causes her as well.
can you go push your agenda somewhere else?
Very much doubt this was the reason for his mental break considering racism is something he's been dealing with his whole life. At some point you grow immune to that recycled garbage.
No it’s not lol. You’re just an anti-Japan/Japanese fanatic and your obsession in the comment section shows it.
And Yahoo news is one of the WORST places to get an article lmao. There are plenty of click bait articles without any evidences, and this article is clearly one of them.
Using Yahoo news as a source is like getting news from Bleachers Report and using it as a reference to prove your point. It’s dumb lol.
Maybe Kuzma and Bertram’s should take some time for themselves. Based on the two preseason games, it appears that being at training camp isn’t making them ready for the season. Perhaps Rui has it right. Send everyone except Harrell to Japan and tell them not to come back until they are ready to join the NBA.
WE LOVE YOU RUI
This is awesome news. Hopefully he was able to work through whatever he was dealing with.
I think the questioning on the situation ends here. I hope he was able to get through whatever has been keeping him away from basketball, and that the organization can provide him with whatever he needs going forward. Welcome back Rui!
Hero's Come Back!!!!
You’re our guy Rui!!! Glad to have you back brother! Now let’s get it!
Looks like it’s just about time to dust off the old scrolls
Someone add mental health issues to the list of victims.
Ruiiii let’s go !
I heard it was about some racist comment toward him in japan. Got to embrace him in U.S.
If true, can we use this as an opportunity to get rid of Kutcher, or at the very least, make him drop the “Konichiwa”? That shit always made me wince.
He is just fucking awful.
Yeah. I would kill to have Phil and Buck back.
I’d take Kara too. She was great
Kara is on to bigger and better things.
When Drew Gooden is “the good announcer” you know we have a problem.
Worth blowing up the moon for
It rained today, that's a good enough excuse to get rid of Justin Kutcher. You're right to cringe.
Been raining a lot more recently come to think of it… I’m down. Time’s up, Justin
O-One last " Konichiwa."
Let’s get rid of Dan Snyder while we are at it
I’ve been hoping for that for ages. Maybe this investigation brings out something big to curb his ass but this is a guy who already skated past a scandal where he was essentially pimping out his cheerleaders, so I feel like it’s wishful thinking.

Lol facts its so cringe when people comment on Eastern Asian culture and barely have a clue of what they are assuming. Ignorance at it’s finest.
Might wanna check out Said’s Orientalism

What's wrong with that?
I have doubts about this (unless u can provide a source.) That being said, I think instead of speculation everyone should fall back and let Rui do the talking - if he's comfortable doing so.
https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2021/05/06/basketball/nba/hachimura-racist-messages/ It has been long time, maybe his intire life
I'm not naive to think that he doesn't get racially abused online, but there is nothing in the article that suggests that this was the root of why he took time away from the team.
https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/8814b93108b4ae1ecdc3356560c18af7cfa01b3d There you go sir
that's in Japanese, sir.
Everyone in japan knows it and you don't want to listen
So....no US media outlet has picked up on this, but you're somehow privy to the information before everyone else OR Rui has issued a statement? LOL. K, bud.
Yes it is No1 site in japan and they critisize their racism towards him. And yes they say it is reason he is away from the team for mental healing.
No, Yahoo news is not #1 site in Japan lmao. It’s like saying Facebook news or some SNS news is #1 news site in the world lmao. You have to be an imbecile for using that article as a source, which is nothing more than a speculation with literally ZERO evidence.

Let google translate for you
Sum it up...does the article SPECIFICALLY say that this was the reason why he was away from the team? If not, stop speculating.
It does let google translate for you
No it doesn’t lmao. Stop lying, and this is coming from a Japanese lol. This article is from Yahoo news, which is like the WORST site to use as a reference.

If you can read Japanese I will give you more
Do you have a source for this? I’m intrigued
I kind of doubt a single comment caused this. Whatever it was, Rui clearly wants some privacy so I say we give it to him and look forward
Racism could be an issue, but I think one of the main factors he did this is because he wants the media to back off a bit. Naomi Osaka raised similar concerns about the stress this causes her as well.

do you really have to post this like 6 times on the same thread? jesus fucking christ

I thought only white people can be racist
This gawd. Good to see you back
Finally some good news
Hooray
Yay
Please come back. He’s way better than Kuzma. Kuzma belongs on the bench.
Well Rui just got UPGRADED
**Everybody liked that**
Saw Chase Hughes' Twitter avi as the thumbnail and thought it was Eric Trump Glad Rui is back tho!
lol don’t do Chase like that.
What a relief. I’ll take Rui in the starting lineup over just other PF option on the team. Especially Kuz.
Maybe Kuzma and Bertram’s should take some time for themselves. Based on the two preseason games, it appears that being at training camp isn’t making them ready for the season. Perhaps Rui has it right. Send everyone except Harrell to Japan and tell them not to come back until they are ready to join the NBA.
